In reaction to recent tragic events, many colleges and universities have implemented emergency notification systems, only to find that reliability and message delivery rates of those systems are inadequate, and getting students to register can be challenging. Rave Mobile Safety’s latest version of Rave Alert takes reliability and reach to the next level, further differentiating Rave solutions as the best options for higher education institutions that make student safety a top priority. University clients of Rave are beginning to report new milestones and achievements that demonstrate the effectiveness of Rave’s emergency notification system in addressing these industry issues
 Colorado State University
For example, Colorado State University has recently achieved nearly 90% student participation and extremely high rates of delivery. Colorado State is collecting students’ mobile phone numbers in conjunction with the student class registration process, on an opt-in basis. “Class registration is a process that students cannot ignore and therefore assures us they will become aware of the Rave Alert service,” according to Jose Valdes, associate director for telecommunications, Colorado State University.
 
“Rave is a great partner because they have been responsive to our processes and suggestions. Rave has collaborated with us in development of a system that allows us to upload, validate and update faculty, staff and student subscriptions to Rave Alert. We now have about 90% of our student population enrolled in Rave Alert with the means to analyze system test results. We’re very pleased with the reliability and improved performance of Rave Alert. During recent tests of our emergency notification system, Rave delivered nearly 24,000 text messages in a matter of minutes. Without the collaboration and capabilities of Rave Alert, we would have not achieved the delivery rates we are observing.”
